“Ok..so she like says..ok like..that outfit doesn’t GO with your hair. And I’m like… major offended, ya know..MAJOR!”
“OK..so he comes to pick me up in this old beat-up..like car..and I’m like thinking..there is NO WAY I am going to my Dad’s country club in That!”
“I know two black girls who live in my dorm..and they’re like really nice. I mean they’re black..put they’re not like..ya know..ghetto black..or anything..they’re just like..like..normal people!”
